I am totally cool with you lambasting it if you don't like it. I think it is a great book (TSM that is, I've never read "Twilight" and doubt that I ever will), but I appreciate your honest wit when it comes to such things, so fire away when you get the chance! :)Mr. Hallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10303979052950013319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5056182184373860858.post-7489810026404385622008-08-23T14:17:00.000-07:002008-08-23T14:17:00.000-07:00Thank you for validating everything I thought the ...Thank you for validating everything I thought the book would be.

We are definitely on the same page. I love that you listed the million different descriptions SM used for Edward's eyes. Gag me. And the whole making out thing, where you can handle a little but then it's too much. (As a roommate that was, I'm sure, guilty of that whole sitch, I am very sorry.) Thanks for your review. My question is, are you going to read the rest of the books? Can you endure 1800 more pages of this?Rachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03765577345097519255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5056182184373860858.post-32894040082765479442008-08-21T10:05:00.000-07:002008-08-21T10:05:00.000-07:00Holly - Solidarity Sister!AJ - Oh, I really didn't...Holly - Solidarity Sister!<BR/><BR/>AJ - Oh, I really didn't want to make people feel guilty for liking it. I was just pointing out why I didn't like it, knowing full well that I care way too much about stuff like that and that most people don't and I kind of wish I were one of them.<BR/><BR/>Ems - It's not that I didn't like Bella, it's that even with all the description the only thing I knew about her was that she was clumsy and could cook. <BR/><BR/>Jessica Gold Brown - (or, as SM would call you, Jessica Flaming Topaz Chocolate Pudding) I was like you, flip-flopping between not wanting to and feeling like I needed to. I finally broke when a friend gave it to me for my birthday and told me I had to. And another friend reminded me how much I love to have an opinion on things and I couldn't have one unless I read it.rachelsayssohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08053263932484618552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5056182184373860858.post-80957752257414354982008-08-20T23:26:00.000-07:002008-08-20T23:26:00.000-07:00I had almost convinced myself to give this one a t...I had almost convinced myself to give this one a try, but you have confirmed everything I thought I would dislike in the book and now i don't know again.
